Gremlins

Joe Dante's Gremlins, released in 1984, perfectly encapsulated a horror story that was at times funny but at others genuinely terrifying (if you were a child, anyway). Thanks to Hollywood's thirst for guaranteed success, the film is to be remade, but without Dante's magic touch. Details at the moment are patchy as a director is yet to be named for the reboot, but we don't imagine they'll sit on a project that upon its initial release brought in 10 times what it cost to make.
